LP_total_irradiance
- ofiber.cylinder_step.LP_total_irradiance(V, b, ell)[source]
Calculate the total irradiance for a step-index fiber.
See Ghatak equation 8.58. The returned value is the total power (cladding + core) divided by the area of the core.
- Parameters:
V – V-parameter for fiber [-]
b – normalized propagation constant [-]
ell – desired fiber mode [-]
- Returns:
total power over core area [-]
